While it is unfortunate that there is not a 391 option with purely tanking stats, these are still the best in slot option for any plate tank.

These boots have plenty tanking stats, considering the sheer amount of dodge. Expertise, however overlooked by tanks in favor of mitigation / avoidance, is not to be completely ignored, especially in heroic difficulty.

Just for the sake of example: high expertise and hit value make the bouncing of Ragnaros (hc) between tanks much smoother, considering that everyone should maximize his / her DPS output, including the tank off which the boss has been taunted. Having to idle for a while just to enable the other tank to get a decent amount of threat ahead is not really the best strategy.

Besides, should you consider expertise as too low on your priority list or should you be already capped, reforging says "hi!" ;)

The only thing I would consider unfortunate is the unfriendly RNG, coupled with the low drop rate shown by wowhead, to which I can testify in tears.
